Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Spread the 1.5 lb frozen fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet.

Bake the fries for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until they are golden and crispy.
Step 3
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries.
Step 4
Return the sheet to the oven and bake for 2-3 minutes more, until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Season the cheesy fries with the 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper, then sprinkle with the 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley.
